Petition for New Militia District
GEORGIA —Bartow County:
To Hon J A Howard, Ordinary of said
County: The undersigned, resident citi
zens of the 827th district, Georgia Militia,
Bartow county, Georjia, residing in the
northeastern portion of said Militia Dis
trict, respectfully represent to your Honor
that a large number of the residents of
said part of said District are eight miles
from the justice court ground and voting
precinct, and are compelled to cross the
Pine Log mountain and Falacoa creek,
and said creek when swollen is qnpaas
able, making it inconvenient as well as a
burden to them in going to the court
ground and vo’ing precinct. And your
petitioners conceive it to be nee ssary and
expedient to lay out anew Militia District
off of said 827th District, G. M., and your
petitioners further represent that being
near the county line of Cherokee they can
reach no other convenient place to vote.
Your petitioners further represent that
within the said portion of said district
there is suilicient population and persons
subject to militia duty to authorize the
establishing anew district as provided by
law. Wherefore your petititioners pray
that Your Honor appoint three commis
sioners, citizens of said 827th district, to
lay out and define the lines and boundary
of said New District, and such other order
and proceedings as are necessary and law
ful to cary out the objects petitioned for,
and your petitioners will ever pray, &c.

When do the dead return? When midnight
tapers burn,
And aching heads oa fever beds
Bewildered toss and turn.
Then shrouded forms- arise to startle watchinf
eyes.
Forbid to. eiose in sweet repose^
By haunting memories.
Some friend of long ago, in robes of virgin
snow,
That fancy brings on whispering wings,
Seems boating to and fro,
Ephemeral and pale; our quickened censes
qi a 1
To recognize, with bolden eyes,
One from within the vail.
Not this a guardian sprite from golden gates
of I'ght
Come down to bless our wilderness
And guide our footsteps right.
They come, or seem to come, from a celestial
home.
To bid good cheer that Heaven is near
To this the land of doom.
In tones the soul may hear, if not the mortal
ear,
They bid the sad: “ Look up, be glad,
The Comforter is near.”
To earth’s ungeniul soil, where suffering and
toil
Meet poor reward, they may afford
A respite from turmoil.
They come, lor their defense, to youth and in
nocence,
When balmy sleep, serene and deep
Beguiles the waking sense.
Belike, they prompt a dream, and make it real
seem.
Of those we love, who now above
Glide o’er the jasper stream;
Perchance a message bear to weary sons of
care,
To buoy them up with blessc*d hope
And guard from error’s snare.
Is death's dark valley near? They whisper:
“ Never fear,
Infinite love will surely prove
Sufficient even here."
Our guardian angols they, to bear us on tho
way
O’er stormy seas; the deputies
To Heaven whene'er we pray.
How sweet ’twould be to know that those once
loved below
Ne’er us forget, but love us yet,
And thus remembrance show —
Unseen, our steps attend, unheard, our cause
defend,
Beguile our fears, dry up our tears,
And peace and warning send;
To know they sec and hear our words and ac
tions here
Would hold us back from error's track,
And strengthen, comfort, cheer.
Since they our acts may see, how guarded we
should be,
Nor fright away by night or day
This Angel Ministry*.

Helen was silent. Her face was no
paler than before, and there were no

light. Her look was one of inquiry, at
least so he determined to make himself
understood.
“I mean, Helen, that it is better for
you, when arraigned, to plead guilty,
admit taking the bracelet, and I think
we can get you off easily.”
For a moment the white face was up
turned to his, and then the sweet, sad
voice said:
“Would you have me admit a lie?”
“Oh, no, no, no!” said the sheriff,
“but you know”—and he scratched his
head, “but you see every body knows
it, you know,and every body will know
it. It makes no difference what you
say, they will believe it.”
“Believe what ?” said Helen, her eyes
having a light very unnatural. “ I can
not help what people say of me. lam
not the first girl who has been ruined
by the thoughtless or intentional slan
ders of people who have some claims to
goodness; but I am innocent in the
sight of Heaven. I know the crime is
a felony. It is what the lawyers call
‘gi’and larceny,’ and I will be sent to
the penitentiary, but I would not admit
a lie to save myself from all tins degra
dation.”
Mr. Belcher now discovered that he
had no ordinary person to deal with.
She was either innocent or the most
brazen criminal he had ever met.
Never had he known one actually guilty
to assume her manner and tone. The
sheriff thought: “Of course, she is
guilty. Judge Arnold's family stand
too high in social circles to have made
a false report on thpgirl, and the Judge
is too shrewd to be mistaken. Of
course she is guilty. Judge Arnold
“THIS IS THE PERSON.”
can have no deep game to play in this
matter.” The girl was poor and friend
less, and he had expressed himself as
regretting that it haul occurred. He
looked at Helen. She met his eyes with
an unwavering gaze. Her manner
said: “I have done notlnug to merit
this, and can not be made to bow rny
head in shame. You may punish me if
you will, but you can not break my
spirit.”
“She is certainly a case,” thought
the sheriff, turning his face toward the
coach window. “Oh, I do wish she
would plead guilty; she’s foolish if she
don’t.”
The last was fluttered loud enough
for Helen to hear. She quickly re
sponded:
“It may lie foolish to plead not
guilty, Mr. Belcher, but it will be right.
It is better to be right than tobe wise.”
The sheriff was silenced. The village
was soon reached, ami the roekaway
drove up to the office of the magis
trate. *
Squire Bluffers haul his office in an old
frame building on the ground floor, not
many rods removed from the post
office which was on Uiq qorner ol the
square. The justice of the peace was a
portly man, with gray hair, and a pair
of spectacles upon his nose. He was
writing on his docket on the entrance
of the sheriff with his prisoner. The
old justice looked up and then pushed
his spectacles upon his forehead. No
sooner did his eves rest upon the fair
prisoner, then he started. Squire Bluff
eis was a man with a big, kind heart,
and to see one so young and handsome
us Helen Lakeman fallen, touched him.
“This is the person,” said the sheriff,
gruffly. Since he had found Helen so
much more hardened than he had
expected, he had lost much of his sym.-
pathy for her. The justice, in the
absence of the proseeutiwg attorney,
read the complaint U) Usr, and asked
her whether aha was guilty or not
guilty.
“Not guilty,” ww tlu* Ntfpons*.
The magistrate folded up the com
plaint, and, putting it In % Urge envel
ope, thrust it back in a pigeon-hole.
There was a fow momenta silence, when
the justice, taking up hia pea, aaid i
“Have you a lawyer?”
“No sir,” Helen answered.
“Have you money to employ & law
yer?”
‘•No sir; I had but two dollars and
fifty cents, and I gave that to my little
brother, when I left him.”
“Do you want an examination now,
to-day, or would you rather wait?”
Helen felt prompted to ask for a
delay, and she did so.
“Can you give bonds for your appear
ance here in ten days?”
“I think not,” Helen answered. “1
know but very few' persons, and those I
do not know I would not like to ask to
go on my bond.”
“I w ill make it small if you will make
an effort”
“It would bo no use,” said Helen,
sadly.
“I don’t like to send a nice little girl
like you to jail,” said the justice, with
a flattering smile.
“I do not like to go there,” said
Helen, brushing a tear from her cheek,
,“but I suppose it can’t bo helped. It
may be that sometime the world will
know that I am innocent, though it is
impossible to convince people now.”
! “I will continue your ease for ten
days, my good girl; in the meanwhile
I will have to commit you. Mr. Bridges,
the jailor, is a very nice man, and he
may not lock you up in a cell, but let
you stay with his family.”
The suggestion of the justice seemed
to strike the sheriff favorably. He
said he would see Bridges about it. Mr.
Bridges had the front part of the jail
converted into a dwelling where him
self and family lived, lie was found
and the thing talked over. If it could
he done he had no objection. Mr.
Belcher assured him that lie had the
opinion of the justice of the peace on
that subject, and that it could be done
with propriety. The result of their
conference on the matter was that they
went to the justice’s oiliec, where
Helen, with her bonnet drawn down
over her face out of modesty, not from
sense of shame, sat. >
“Here, Jack,” said the justice, tak
ing tip a paper, “here is a commitment
for Helen Lakeman. Her case is con
tinued for ten days. You might let her
stay in your house if you have no cell
for her, as your house is a part of the
jail.”
“Will you try to get away, Helen,”
said the jailer to the girl, “providin’ I
don’t lock you up?”
“Would you believe any promise I
w'ould make you?” the girl A-ked.
“Well, yes, I might.”
“No one believes what I 'kar; I am
innocent of any crime, yet no one be
lieves me. Even the sheriff insists on
my pleading guilty, and admitting a
crime J never committed.”
“No, I don't,” said the sheriff, a lit
tle nettled, “1 wanted you to pletul
guilty if you committed the offense; it
would be better for you in the end.”
“Promise me that you will make no
effort to escape,” said the jailer, “and
you need not enter the walls of the
jail.”
Helen gave her promise,and was told
to “come on.”
She arose and followed the jailer to
his house. There were many curious
eyes turned upon her, as she went to
the jail, for the news of her urrest had
spread all over the village. She reached
the house of the jailer and was ushered
in.
CHAPTER XIV.
CLARENCE AMD ROSE FORM A BRAVE RESOLU
TION, AND CARRY IT OUT.
The news of Helen Lakcman’s arrest
spread like wild tire all over the Sandy
Fork neighborhood. Mrs. Arnold, with
her head high in the air, in her en
deavors to see under her glasses, was
ready to answer any and all questions
in regal'd to the matter. Mothers Tar
truni and Grundy called on her for
their supply of news, and started about
from house to house to peddle it out.
The next Sunday, there being preach
ing at the Sandy Fork school-house, tho
news was scattered generally. Mother
Turtrum, who sat next to Mrs. Evans,
saiil:
“Didn’t you hear about that Lake
man gal? She stole some money at
Judge Arnold’s.”
“Money ! I heard it was a bracelet”
“No—it was money.”
“Who told you?”
“Mother Grundy.”
‘Who told her?”
“Mrs. Arnold.”
“I think there must have been some
mistake about it,” said Mrs. Evans.
“I’d like to know how?” said Mother
Tartrum, “there can't be no mistake
about it”
“Oh, the bracelet must have been
lost and put among Helen’s things by
mistake.”
“No it wasn’t,” said the tattler,
shaking her head; “no, it wasn’t; she
stole it, I know she stole it.”
“Kut Helen was such a good girl.
There can’t be auy doubt us to her in
nocence.”
“You think that thing >vas a good
gal?” asked Mother Tartrum, who
seemed a special agent to slander
Helen.
“Yes.”
“Well, she came to Mrs. Arnold's
way in the niglit with a trauge man.
Do you call that a nice gal? She’s the
—she’s the worst gal we had in the
neighborhood.” The eyes of Mother
Tartrum sparkled with indignation, and
the hairy mole on her cheek trembled
with anger.
‘ “Is that so?” asked Mrs. Evans.
“I guess it is; Mrs. Arnold tells it.”
Not three seats away Mother Grundy
whs harranguing Mrs. Taylor.
“Wonder what Warren Stuart thinks
o’ his gal now , eh? She's bad enough,
I guess. I guess young men who throw
away such girls as Hallie Arnold for a
kitchen gal is sure to get beat. She is
jist as bad as can be, and is now locked
up in jail for a thief.”
There was one family to whom the
news of Helen’s fall came like a thun
derbolt. It was the When
Mrs. Stuart lirst heard of it site burst
into tears, and said :
“It’s all our fault, Jateob! it’s all
out fault; we drove her to do it.”
“I don’t see how we are to blame,”
said the farmer, trying to find some
way of relieving himself from any obli
gation to the friendless girl.
“We drove her away with her poor,
little, crippled brother, out into the
world. The temptation was too great.
Oh, who could blame her? It was her
moriier’s bracelet sold at the sale."

W 6 like t/ got itfto, ’an it’s a blessin’
wo got rid of her fust when we did, or
W(s*d bc±/J a thief la <®ur family. She
lutd the wool completely pulled over
Warren's eyes.”
Mrs. Stuart wept a few moments in
silence, and then said :
"But think, Jacob, of the poor, friend
less child, for she is scarcely more than
a child, and of the charge she has upon
her.”
‘Oh, yes, I know”—
“What do you suppose luis become of
little Amos?”
“I don’t know, I guess he’ll be
taken care of.”
At this moment Clarence entered the
room. He had just come in at noon
from plowing. This was on Monday,
the day after Mothers Tartrum’s and
Grundy's issue of information. Clar
ence had not been to church and had
only been told an hour ago by Henry
Stuckley, who was riding down the lane
and called him to come to the fence and
rest The honest face of the boy was
red with anger.
“Father,” he gaspod, “have you
heard about Helen?”
“What about her?” demanded tho
father, gruffly.
“She’s been arrested for stealin’.”
“Well, what of it?”
“It’s a lie! that’s all.” thundered
Clarence, in a voice full of fury.
“it’s a i.ie! that’s alt..”
“Have you gone crazy?” asked his
father, in amazement
“No, I’ve not; but who ever says that
Helen Lakeman stole that bracelet is a
liar! I don't care who they are.”
“Well, Judge Arnold swore she did, ”
said the father, triumphantly.
“Then Judge Arnold swore to a pos
itive falsehood.”
“That’s a grave accusation, sir; what
object has Judge Arnold ?”
“A big one, and lie’s set up a job in
the matter, as sure as I live; the old
thief.”
“Clarence, behave yourself,” said the
father. “Have some respect for your
mother and myself, if you have none
for yourself. I would like to know
what object Arnokl could have.”
“His girl is half dead after Warren,
and Helen had cut her out; now, if
they can blight her name so that War
ren will not have her, that freckled
face, red-headed ILd Arnold may have
a show.”
“Oh, hush! you simpleton.”
“I am no simpleton at all, father. I
know more about this than you.”
“You are making a fool of yourself,
Clarence,” said Mr. Stuart.
“Well, I’ll make a bigger fool out o'
myself than 1 ever have..
“What do you mean?”
“I mean I’m goin’ to see Helen out
in this. Old King James Arnold will
find before long that the girl he thought
so friendless has two friends—l am
one, and brother Warren the other.”
Mr. Stuart was completely dum
foundedpU Clarence’s announcement.
“Helen is in jail for lack of bonds; if
it was Tom Scuttle for wife beatiu’ yon
would be ready to go on his bond. But
I will go on Helen’s bond.”
Clarence turned and walked away.
In the hall he met his sister Rose, her
eyes red with weeping.
“Oh, brother, I am so glad you are
going to help poor Helen. Do go at
oneo —let me go with you.”
“Yon shall. I’m going to take my
own horse and buggy', an’ go to New
ton tills evening.”
“I will see mother.”
“Get ready if you are goin’, mother
or no mother,” cried Clarence, in
whose heart tlie spirit of rebellion was
powerful.
The resolution of Rose became as
strong as her brother’s, though out of
a sense of duty she notified her mother.
“Do go. Rose,” Mrs. Stuart said,
much to the girl’s astonishment; “tell
Helen I believe her guiltless, and I
want her to forgive me.”
Fifteen minutes later Clarence and
his sister were in the farmer’s open
buggy rattling down the hill toward
Newton.
CHAPTER XV.
MR. STYLES AND MR. LAYMAN.
Helen Lakeman was a truly converted
Christian. Being naturally of a relig
ious turn of mind, and having Chris
tian parents, she early embraced re
ligion and became a member of tlie
church. The neglect she had received,
her many trials and persecutions, would
have made any other than a true Chris
tian n hater of mankind. To the disgrace
of church members (not churches) be
it said, most of her persecutions came
from them. Her parents were Presby
terians, and she a member of that
church. Her strong faith in Christ,
and sweet temper, saved her from bit
terly reproaching her persecutors, and
tlie blessed promises in the Bible were
ever a consolation to her.
She found Mrs. Bridges, tlie jailer's
wife, a very kind woman. Oue not
altogether incredulous um to what
every hotly said, and yet not ready to
believe as men jailors, that every per
son accused is a criminal. She had
heard Helen’s story before she came to
the jail, and declared, to herself:
“I pity the j*x>r child, who was strug
gling for her little brother, and she is
more to be pitied than blamed, even if
she took the bracelet.”
She greeted the downcast girl kindly
on her entrance to the house, giving
Helen tlie first real sympathy slh* had
received since her misfortune. Taking
both small hands in her own, and g:izing
into the sweet face and large blue eyes,
Mrs. Bridges said :
“There is some mistake here. Jack; I
know there is. This poor child never
ilid a wrong in her life.”
